 "questions": [
  {
   "q": "How much of EVX is in S&P 500 companies?",

  },
  {
   "q": "What does EVX hold?",
   "a": "27 positions as filed for Jun 30, 2026, with the top ten at 61% of the fund. The largest are Ecolab Inc at 8.2%, Waste Management Inc at 7.5%, Waste Connections Inc at 6.9%."
  },
  {
   "q": "Has EVX beaten the S&P 500?",
   "a": "Over the year to Sep 11, 2026 EVX returned +2.5% with distributions reinvested, against +17.5% for the S&P 500, so it finished behind the index by 15.1 points."
  },
  {
   "q": "What does EVX cost?",
   "a": "The prospectus expense ratio is 0.55% a year. Because 100% of the fund differs from the S&P 500, the fee on that differing part works out at 0.55%."
